Morgan Trail, Confederate Cav went through Southern Ohio Nelsonville to Burr Oak area.
Ancient Earthworks and Mound Cemetery
When the ancient Adena and Hopewell Indian cultures disappeared, they left 95 acres of ceremonial burial mounds, passageways, and embankments.
The founders of Marietta knew that these earthly artworks were important, so they made an effort to preserve them. In fact, they built another mound around the original site.
Some of the ancient ceremonial structures still stand, including the 30-foot Conus Mound in the Mound Cemetery. At the top of the cemetery are graves of the founding Revolutionary War veterans, including Rufus Putnam and Benjamin Tupper. Actually, it has the highest number of Revolutionary War officer graves in the nation.
Also nearby is the Ancient Earthworks, an archaeological site that resembles an Aztec temple. You can tour both areas.
